Brett and Tory break down a record-setting moment in the hobby.

Card Ladder reports $605M in monthly sales.
dcsports87 hits its biggest month ever.
And a Shohei Ohtani All Aces PSA 10 sells for over $15K.

This conversation goes deeper than headlines.

You’ll hear what happens when content drives brand growth.
Why niche categories like wrestling and TCG are heating up.
How scarcity, demand, and perception collide in today’s market.
And what Ohtani is doing to rewrite the rules collectors have followed for years.

They also unpack the real decision behind selling a card at peak hype.

Hold or sell?
First to market or long-term bet?

If you’re trying to understand where the hobby is going next, this is the conversation.
